Gambling action alert

Add comment October 21st, 2008

I regularly get “Gambling Action Alerts” from the Illinois Church Action on Alcohol and Addiction Problems. Anita Bedell is executive director of ICAAAP.

Most of the alerts have been about legislation in Springfield  that the group opposes and wants you to know more about. This week’s alert is a legislative survey that shows where candidates stand on various gambling proposals such as leasing the lottery, adding casinos, etc. Click HERE to see the survey results.

I took a quick glance and it appears quite a few candidates neglected to take the survey.
